The Chinese auto giant is working on introducing a technology that will allow controlling a car by the power of thought. The new technology has been successfully tested on Chinese roads. Its essence lies in responding to electromagnetic impulses of the driver's brain.

According to the developers, the brain signal recognition system is capable of discarding unnecessary information, reacting only to thoughts related to driving. In particular, we are talking about commands like "lock doors," "brake," "forward," etc.

To control the car with thoughts, you need to wear headphones with 16 sensors. The developers worked on the unique thought recognition system for two years. The first successful tests of the prototype with the innovation took place on July 15. The car executed all the test pilot's commands, though so far at a low speed.

In addition to information from brain impulse sensors, the car's onboard computer analyzed data from numerous surveillance cameras, laser sensors, and GPS radars. Interesting, what would happen if you think "full throttle! Oh no! Full brake"…
